Morning Star (Portuguese: Estrela da Manhã) is a 1950 Brazilian drama film directed by Osvaldo de Oliveira and starring Doris Duranti, Paulo Gracindo and Dulce Nunes.[1][2][3] The film's sets were designed by the art director Lazlo Meitner. It was one of two postwar films Italian star Duranti made in South America alongside the Argentine Alguien se acerca in 1948. Duranti did not appear on screen in her native Italy for several years due to her controversial former relationship with Fascist politician Alessandro Pavolini.
